Existing fchmod invocations do not check the return value, and they are only interested in removing the write bits, and we generally don't care a lot if files remain writable. I'm not proficient enough to add any ACL fiddling to fchmod that would be required by the above change, whose purpose is to be strict about permissions. Nor am I interested (who the heck is sharing a Windows box anyway? ;-) Therefore, here's just a work-around patch to keep things going on Windows. Any opinions from the Windows corner? --- >8 --- From: Johannes Sixt <j6t@xxxxxxxx> Subject: [PATCH] mingw: turn the always-failing fchmod stub into always-succeeding A recent change introduced new call sites of fchmod, but these new call sites check the return value. The test suite can't get past t0001 without a dozen or so failures. Just fake that the call was successful even though it did nothing.
